   Fantastic food and the service was incredible. Every member of staff was superb, the only let down was the extended family with children being noisy.

   Had a fabulous meal at The Watefront this evening. Five of us celebrating our daughters birthday. The waiting staff were very friendly and attentive and the food outstanding. Can't wait to come back again.

   Love this restaurant the service and ambiance cannot be faulted food is amazing quality. I’ve only gone down to 4 stars because went for fish and chips never had here before and we’ve had better in local pubs. Normally have fish pie which is my comfort food but not on summer menu. Will be back love this restaurant

   By sheer chance I came upon this restuarant, got a booking, but panicked because we had a wheelchair to consider and advised the restuarant only an hour before we arrived. They were brilliant hosts, as just when we arrived the manager happened to be outside dealing with a parking problem with another guest and so he was able to not only escort us to our table outside personally, but heaved my mum in the wheelchair up the kerb!!!! She was fine btw! We were shown our table outside, as there are steps into the inside, but it was a glorious day and we were kept warm by the sun. The staff were engaging and professional and the food was excellent. There were loads of other guests but that added to the fantastic ambience, as we looked out to sea eating our wonderful food, cocktails and drinks. Recommend Paradise Lost cocktail. It was superb. I would imagine it's just as nice in the more inclement weather, if you're inside that is. Full marks to The Waterfront Restuarant. Would definitely go again. Thank you to the staff for looking after us so well.

   Defrosted goujons, seabass and dressed crab, so lost all the flavour of fresh fish, wine substitution with a cheaper version ( Macedonian) same cost, overall poor! And at £110 I'm assuming we were paying for location as opposed to quality of food and drink!!!

   Lovely place to go for dinner, normally book if staying in the Hythe Imperial. Great food & friendly service. Gets very busy in peak season so best to make a reservation ahead of time.
